This is used by radeonfb and aty128fb at least... though only on ppc for now... It could be used later in fbdev's for "optisation". Basically, a trylock semantic on the console semaphore, allows you to try to do something right away (irq time), but defer if not possible. I use it in some low level PowerMac PM code.
